Safed Musli (Chlorophytum borivilianum L., Liliaceae), by Ray Sahelian, M.D.

Safed musli is being promoted as a sexual enhancement herb and has historically been used as an aphrodisiac herb. I could not find any published research in the Western medical literature regarding the aphrodisiac effects of safed musli.
